For several weeks I was worried that I wasn't taking enough calories cause I could barely eat 3 very tiny meals. Here lately though my hunger is back with. vengeance. I used to take in around 600 calories a day and feel very full. However today I took in over 1600 calories and only stopped eating cause I had taken in so many calories. My surgeon does his first fill 6 weeks post op. any suggestions on how to controls hunger for the next 2 weeks before I lose the 25 pounds I have lost so far???????

I would avoid taking pills (the RX ones are dangerous and the OTC ones aren't regulated by FDA - so you have no clue what's in the. I did the whole Phen-Fen craze in the 90's - would bake a cake and clean my house at 3 am after sleeping maybe an hour in a 2 day period. Phen-Fen was banned in the US after causing many heart problems in users.

Maybe you need a fill? If you were satisfied on a little and now it takes more to fill you, I would ask if I could get a fill. You haven't filled out your profile, so I have no clue when your sugery was done, how much you weight, how much you've lost, etc...

Yea my surgeon didnt do a fill for 6 weeks as well. I ate lots and lots of sugar free Jello that last week. Once you get that first fill you will notice the difference.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
